Chapter 258: Involvement
The assassination was in the prince's mansion, and the news soon alarmed the palace, so that the emperor knew. And at this time, Qiu Muyun, as the sixth prince Yunchuan, was in the imperial study to announce the matter.
"How dare you openly assassinate the prince in the prince's mansion under my nose! So next time, will you rebel and enter the palace? The emperor was furious, and Long Yan was furious, and slapped the table a few times to show his anger.
"Go, you go and investigate, you must find out this matter clearly." The emperor intuitively felt that his majesty had been provoked, and he felt that the villain was emboldened, and he felt threatened.
"The retainers take the order." Qiu Muyun never thought of this matter, and he was wondering in his heart. At this moment, the crown prince of the court and the four princes are in the same situation, and they are fighting against each other.
If something happens to the crown prince, the first major suspect will be the fourth prince.
But at this juncture, would the four princes really be so stupid?
Qiu Muyun received the emperor's order, and rushed to the prince's mansion with full thoughts, and as soon as he entered the mansion, he saw a strong smell of blood coming to his nose, and he was even more embarrassed, and the corpses were all over the field.
And when Qiu Muyun received the order in the imperial study, Mao was already one step ahead of him and came to the prince's mansion to find out.
Seeing Qiu Muyun now, he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "Regardless of those subordinates, there are five or six ladies and young ladies who died in the garden alone, and the most important thing is that the crown princess was also splashed with blood on the spot." ”
"Something happened to the crown princess?" Hearing Mao already say this, Qiu Muyun's expression became very solemn, this matter involved the crown princess, and it was quite tricky.
"Also, Mrs. Hou and Jiang Yingli also came to the Prince's Mansion today." Mao had already looked around for a moment before lowering his voice and then praying.
Qiu Muyun's heart jumped, he didn't expect that they were among them.
"Where are they now?" Qiu Muyun's face was so gloomy that he couldn't do it, the blood flowing on the ground made his eyes hurt, and he couldn't help but think of Jiang Yingli full of blood in his mind.
Just imagining it like this, Qiu Muyun's heart was so tight that he almost suffocated.
"I heard those people say that Mrs. Hou was unwell at that time, and she was invited to the backyard by the crown princess, and she should be in the wing room at the moment."
As soon as Mao's words fell, Qiu Muyun was already walking forward, striding towards the backyard.
At this moment, Jiang Yingli and Mrs. Hou held each other tightly, even if the sound outside had stopped, they still didn't dare to act rashly, and they froze behind the bed.
"Squeak."
As the sound of the door being pushed open sounded, Jiang Yingliang's heart rose to his throat.
"Auntie?"
As soon as a low and tentative voice came out, Jiang Yingli suddenly had a feeling of being left to death and resurrected, and the taste of escaping death made her heart beat so fast that she was about to rush out of her chest.
The same is true for Mrs. Hou, who has squatted so that her feet are numb, and she has no strength in her body.
Seeing that Yun Chuan came over, his tense body was even more relaxed, and he was about to sit down, but fortunately, Jiang Yingliang helped her, so as not to make her so embarrassed.
"I'm here." Mrs. Hou was weak and a little frightened, and said weakly.
When Qiu Muyun heard the voice, he immediately rushed over, and saw Jiang Yingli and Mrs. Hou hugging each other at the back of the bed, with a little face that was white and pale, and it seemed that he was very frightened.
"Are you all right?" Qiu Muyun was in a hurry, but he had to take care of his identity, so he could only ask so dryly and eagerly, instead of stepping forward to check in person.
Jiang Yingli shook her head a little weakly, her thoughts were turbulent, but she forcibly restrained her.
She just raised her eyes and glanced at Yun Chuan, and when she saw the face that was exactly the same as Qiu Muyun, she almost collapsed, she was really scared at that time, even the crown princess had an accident, if she was found here by those assassins at that time, then she and Mrs. Hou would only die.
In the midst of extreme panic, her mind almost collapsed, and she had been vigilant before, not daring to take it lightly.
Now that she is safe, she also saw the face that made her think about it day and night, and suddenly it seemed like she had found a life-saving straw, which made her feel deeply wronged and wanted to confide.
But the remaining reason was warning her that the person in front of her was the Sixth Prince Yunchuan, not her Qiu Muyun, so she was stiffly restrained.
"It's okay, just let me out. Outside there are forbidden armies, and there will be no more assassins. ”
Jiang Yingli has been hiding, only listening to the screams outside to guess, and now that he has gone out, he has found out how tragic the situation is. Five or six people died on the spot, and dozens of people were injured, trembling and terrified.
Because of the suddenness and strangeness of the assassination, after the forbidden army came, according to the usual practice, they had to record a confession, and they could not easily let people go.
"Why is she nothing!"
Mrs. Yi covered her injured arm that was still bleeding, and just after trembling and finishing what she had said, she saw Jiang Yingli and Mrs. Hou slowly appear.
What made her even more unbearable was that both of them were unharmed! This made her feel that the wound on her arm hurt even more.
"I was in the back room with Madame Hou, and the assassins didn't notice." After walking slowly, Jiang Yingli recovered from the extreme panic, and was a little stunned by the tragic situation in front of him just now.
The man's shrill voice called her back, and she subconsciously opened her mouth to explain.
Unexpectedly, her explanation was like falling raw water in boiling water, and it suddenly exploded.
instantly attracted a lot of eyes, all of them with malice and resentment.
"She's really lucky, the crown princess has an accident, and she hasn't lost even a single hair!" Another indignant voice fell, yin and yang weird and very sharp.
"No wonder those people keep saying she's a scourge, but why didn't she do anything, and we ended up hurting. Can't leave yet! ”
Those people were in high spirits, and the more they talked, the more excited they became, as if they had found some kind of catharsis, and each sentence became more and more ugly.
"That's not it, she was assassinated in the market before! It's also fate, and I picked up a life! ”
As these words fell, it seemed to cause some speculation.
"You say, could it be that she couldn't kill her last time, and this time again? In fact, these assassins are coming for her, who knows if they can't find her, so they use us to vent their anger? ”
"Maybe that's it! It's really pitiful for the crown princess, she was innocently involved by her, and she lost her life! ”
The more those people talked, the more they felt that what they were saying was the truth, and the more they spoke, the more they looked at Jiang Yinglian's eyes with hatred.
"That's it, otherwise how could she go wherever there would be assassinations? This is the Prince's Mansion! ”
